Bought this for the story, grew up hearing it from my Dad. It’s a clean drinking blend, easy and tasty, pour neat. A previous taster mentioned it get better once the bottle is opened and I certainly agree. Nose is bananas but doesn’t carry on to the taste. To me it’s almost an easier JW Black. When none scotch friends visit this is what I serve. It may have not have blown me away but it’s a solid buy and a great bottle for conversation. I think I’m on my third bottle now and the consistency is appreciated. I’ll be keeping one on the shelf.
